FBI reportedly looking at several suspects in Olympic bombing

ATLANTA (CNN) -- Investigators in the Centennial Olympic Park
bombing are focusing on at least six suspects, including a
former mental health patient with a history of violence, CNN
has learned.

Though much of the media attention has centered on suspect
Richard Jewell, investigators said their list of suspects is
much broader.

"We have said all along that we have more than one suspect
and we are continuing to say that," said Deputy Attorney
General Jamie Gorelick. "We're not going to comment on
specific elements of the investigation as it progresses."

The question of who planted the bomb has stumped FBI
investigators since the explosion jolted the park July 27,
killing one person and injuring more than 100 others.

Leads apparently are coming from various directions. Sources
close to the investigation said, in one instance, a
woman thought her boyfriend may have planted the bomb.

Investigators would not discuss specifics. But sources told
CNN that investigators are re-examining the alibi of a
militia member who was questioned early on in the
investigation. Sources also said Jewell -- the security
guard who was initially hailed a hero for alerting
authorities of the bomb -- remains a suspect.

Despite extensive searches of Jewell's apartment, authorities
said they do not have enough evidence to arrest him or rule
him out.

Jewell's attorney, Jack Martin, castigated investigators
earlier in the week and demanded the government reveal why
his client became a suspect in the first place.

"It's a terrible state to be in," Martin said, referring to
the scrutiny his client has undergone. (11 sec./245K AIFF or WAV sound)
"He's a hostage in his own house."

Agents are also examining an olive-green duffel bag from an
Army and Navy surplus store, The Atlanta-Journal Constitution
reported Friday. Investigators have not commented on that
newspaper report. In the days after the explosion, it was
reported that the bomb had been in a green knapsack.

Meanwhile, investigators said the case could drag on for
weeks, if not months.
